I had mentioned a little known fact in some earlier posts that Madan Mohan had once given music for an Amitabh Bachchan movie. Here is another little known fact- Amitabh Bachchan has also worked in a Rajshri productions movie. And this Rajshri production movie was very much a small budget deglamourised affair as was the case for all Rajshri productions movies of those days.

This song is from “Do Kaliyaan” though I was not aware of this fact when I used to listen to this popular song on loudspeakers during my younger days. Needless to say, I was not aware who were the actors on whom this song was picturised.

“Aap mujhe acche lagne lage” is a very nice song sung by Lata. But as happens with me for many songs, I was not aware which movie this song was from.
